Scary ObamaCare Cuts in Medicare Revealed!
ConservativeAmerican.org ^ | 3/26/2010 | Peter Andrew

Posted on 03/26/2010 5:05:06 PM PDT by Peter Andrew Conservative

"...in 2010 Medicare cuts to inpatient psychological hospitals begin on July 1st. So, the government will pay less, for fewer people, for those who suffer from mental illness... You can hear the Democrats planning this; “Hey! Cut the Crazies, no one will care!”

...Medicare Advantage cuts kick in in 2011. It doesn’t stop there, they also make Medicare cuts in home health care! ...There will be Medicare cuts in 2011 for seniors who use diagnostic imaging like MRI’s, CT scans, etc... No new physician-owned hospitals will be able to get Medicare for anything! 2011 brings cuts in Medicare payments to... nursing homes and inpatient rehab facilities

On dialysis? Better die before 2012. That’s when Medicare cuts for dialysis treatments kick in. And, there’s even deeper cuts in 2012 for the psych hospitals... Just for kicks, ObamaCare cuts HOSPICE FUNDING in 2012… but who cares, they’re dying anyway, right?

And what about all those annoying old people who are poor? Don’t worry, the Democrats haven’t forgotten them! In 2013, Medicare cuts kick in for hospitals who treat low-income seniors.

...Obama is right. This is what change looks like."

If someone told me that all the illegals were sent back to Dirtland, and the food-stampers had their moochcards revoked, and that all the farmers had to start living off their labor instead of subsidies, I personally wouldn't feel too sorry for them either.

It's very difficult to feel sympathy for a leech.

The hell they can’t. I learned well that it did no good to show Clinton worshippers the facts in black and white. I did not and will not try it with obama worshippers.

They will find out for themselves soon enough.

In fact, that is the only I can console myself knowing the disaster that awaits us.

Knowing that them sobs will get it also. And I hope that everyone of them die from slow starvation.

No, we don’t want them cutting Medicare when these people have paid into it all their lives. I think you have bought into the “evil Republicans want to take away your coverage” that the media repeats ad neaseum.

I have and minister to the elderly. This a preposterous outrage and these monsters have provoked God to anger.

Someone called Bill Bennett with a story about a patient who was denied some pricy dental treatment by the VA because he had a terminal illness.

Um... shouldn’t we be *wanting* them to cut Medicare? It’s single payer for the elderly.

My thoughts exactly...

What is that supposed to mean? Did you bother to read my post? I am opposed to these drastic cuts in Medicare.

Here, let’s debate the issue. I’ll start:

How is Medicare not Single Payer (i.e., European-style healthcare) for the elderly?

So, where are all of our “friends” at AARP? How much were they paid to endorse this insane piece of legislation? Guess AARP had a “senior” moment and didn’t pay any notice about how its members are getting more and more totally screwed!

So much for the “third rail.” The RATs grasped it with both hands and not even a sizzle or a spark. Contrast that with a pubbie proposal to cut back on the rate of growth.

Let’s see if folks have enough sense to vote Obama’s friend McCain out of office. A lot are not very bright. I have two more distant elderly relatives who voted for McCain. Late 70s-80s - my guess is their ticket will come due with teh death panels.

MCCAIN-Feingold gave us he 2006/2008 Dem Congress and Obama.

Savage was playing clips tonight of McCain giving gushing praise for Obama and speeches by McCain where he is pushing amnesty. Arizona is so screwed because ObamaCare and open borders. AZ is going to go broke. Thanks McCain.

Obama is after social justice which means taking away healthcare from white baby boomers and seniors and giving it to others who are more deserving.

The next step will be their retirement money.

More like, their social security. If the companies they worked for go down, do they get their retirement money?

If the pension funds are screwed up they may get nothing. If they are retirement plans in 401Ks they should be fine.

People are so stupid - they pay $50 a month for cable/sat TV to keep the Dem propaganda machine alive.
